Scooter feels that he needs a little more fiber in his diet.

You didn’t unwrap it for him, doofus!

Since we are so hungry, we don’t care about the little details.

Like “MY” dog would eat the wrapper!

Wait a minute. What’s this “fiber” in the doggy doo?

A dogs motto: if it smells like food, eat it.

Burger wrappers smell like food.. ergo…

Wrappers are nothing….you should see what else I eat, when I’m hungry….

In the past.I have poured bacon grease in the trash. My dachshund, Scrappy, is weak for bacon. He’ll knock over the can and eat anything with the grease on it. One time after dumping grease, I heard this pounding and saw the top of the trash just beyond the kitchen counter top, moving along as if it was alive. He was hitting it with his front paws. He didn’t even care that I was there; must have bacon.

Dog regrets. Or do they ever, really?

Since we were a dog.

Like always?

By the look of him, I’d be a little more worried about “blowback” from that burger.

“It’s from McDonald’s, the wrapper is the best-tasting part!”

I haven’t had tots in like forever.

Scooter: It’s called roughage, dude…

CUT!!! That’s a wrap…

I hope it’s paper, not foil. Nasty stuff, foil.

Some fast food places offer a doggie burger at the drivethrough. It’s a plain patty that has dried out before it was used.

A little sauce and it tastes just like the lettuce.

The wrappers should be eaten separately.

Is that Scooter? I love Scooter!
